Promising Developments on MATIC
- A dynamic blockchain as it easily meets the A tier by boasting more than 100,000 daily active wallets and 1,000,000 daily transactions (https://polygonscan.com/charts#blockchainData)
- Magic Eden, Solana's biggest NFT platform, extended its services to support Polygon NFT minting and trading from November 22, 2022 onwards. This multi-chain functionality consequently expanded Magic Eden’s capabilities and capacity for blockchain gaming.
- Also in November 2022, Nike launched a .Swoosh Web3 platform on Polygon (https://mobile.twitter.com/PolygonDaily/status/1592365427833057280?s=20&t=eA6dCXBy6jEXPSqSzviIFg)
- Polygon encourages growth by deploying Avail, which helps developers introduce their DApps atop the Polygon blockchain and access blockchain data “off-chain”. This lets them concentrate their efforts on building instead of getting their headspace distracted by checking data from the network to manage their DApp. (https://www.coindesk.com/tech/2022/06/29/polygon-deploys-custom-blockchain-scaling-solution-avail/?utm_medium=referral&utm_source=feedly&utm_campaign=headlines)
- The Polygon Foundation committed $1 billion towards developing additional ZK-based infrastructure like Hermez, Miden, and Zero.

- Polygon announced in December 2022 about its plans to collaborate with hi - a crypto and fiat financial app - so that users can customise their debit Mastercard by using their preferred image to generate their very own NFT. Gas fee for minting NOT necessary. (https://mobile.twitter.com/PolygonStudios/status/1604839734244933632?s=20&t=F5ZS5dvWcglhGAA6HepShg)
- NFTpay launched a partnership with Polygon that would allow users to buy and sell NFTs with their debit and credit cards. (https://www.business2community.com/nft-news/nftpay-adds-support-for-buying-polygon-nfts-with-credit-card-02596298)
One reason why I keep track of MATIC’s developments is that I get it every other day from Pipeflare. (https://pipeflare.io/r/dba7 ) I need to collect at least 0.25 MATIC before it will be sent to my MetaMask, but haven’t you heard? Patience is my middle name!
